Brewers Win Rights To Norichika Aoki

By Mike Axisa [December 17, 2011 at 6:55pm CST]

Thet Yakult Swallows have announced that the Brewers won the negotiating rights
to Japanese outfielder Norichika Aoki, reports Yasuko Yanagita of Hochi Shimbun
(on Twitter). We heard that Yakult accepted the $2.5MM bid yesterday.

Aoki, 30 in January, is a three-time Central League batting champion and posted a
career line of .336/.411/.472 in his first seven seasons in Japan.
His numbers fell to 292/.358/.360 in 2011, which explains the modest size of
the posting fee. NPB Tracker's Patrick Newman (writing for Fangraphs) said in
August 2010 that Aoki was "the best pure hitter Japan has produced since
Ichiro" and has good defensive range, though a weak throwing arm will
probably limit Aoki to left field in the majors.

The Brewers seem to have plenty of outfield depth with Ryan Braun,
Corey Hart, Nyjer Morgan, and Corey Hart, but there's a chance they could
lose Braun for the first 50 games of the season after his failed drug test.
GM Doug Melvin recently said he is proceeding with his offseason under the
assumption that Braun will be in the lineup all season, however.
As a left-handed hitter, Aoki could serve as a bat off the bench or give
the team depth to make a trade.
